The Le Monacelle Foundation presents, for the first time, an exclusive selection of the most representative cuckoo clocks made by the Niglio family, custodians of a tradition that finds its origins in clay and its most surprising expression in sound.
From earth, humanity's primordial material, different forms arise, the fruit of the search for beauty as a need for Infinite Harmony. And from harmony comes sound, a living element that transforms matter into experience.
An exhibition that explores ceramics not only as form, but as language, memory, and identity.
📍 Le Monacelle Foundation, Matera
📅 September 4 – November 4, 2026
Opening
September 4, 2026, 7:30 PM
Following, a performance by the @niglio_ngl brothers, centered on the sound of cuckoo clocks: an encounter between matter, form, and music, where tradition comes to life through gesture and sound.
EARTH. SHAPE. SOUND.
A family story.
A story of Matera.
A story born from the earth and seeking infinity.
